Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. Laura Patterson (Duncan Spencer photograph) (illustratore). First Printing [Stated]. 494, [2] pages. Maps. Illustrations. Sources and Acknowledgments. Notes. Bibliography. Index. This is a gripping account of an exceptional man - Jim Gavin, America's best paratrooper leader throughout WWII. During Operation Market Garden, Gavin wrote a new chapter in paratrooper heroism, seizing all his objectives despite a serious spinal injury on landing. The first comprehensive biography of James M. Gavin profiles the heroic general who led the famous 82nd Airborne Division during World War II and who later worked at the Pentagon and served as ambassador to France under President Kennedy. First printing was reportedly limited to only 20,000 copies. T. Michael Booth was a former paratrooper and Green Beret. A graduate of Yale, he knew General Gavin for a period of time before the Generals death and had his encouragement to produce this biography. Duncan Spencer was the author or coauthor of numerous books, among them Paratrooper and Conversations with the Enemy (which was a nonfiction finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. He was a veteran journalist who had worked for The Washington Star and had been a columnist for Roll Call. James Maurice Gavin (March 22, 1907 - February 23, 1990), sometimes called "Jumpin' Jim" and "the jumping general", was a senior United States Army officer, with the rank of lieutenant general, who was the third Commanding General (CG) of the 82nd Airborne Division during World War II. During the war, he was often referred to as "The Jumping General" because of his practice of taking part in combat jumps with the paratroopers under his command; he was the only American general officer to make four combat jumps in the war. Gavin was the youngest major general to command an American division in World War II, being only 37 upon promotion, and the youngest lieutenant general after the war, in March 1955. He was awarded two Distinguished Service Crosses and several other decorations for his service in the war. Gavin also worked against segregation in the U.S. Army which gained him some notability. After the war, Gavin served as United States Ambassador to France from 1961 to 1962. Derived from a Kirkus review: A first-rate narrative of the life and times of Lt. Gen. James Maurice Gavin, one of the US Army's few great WW II heroes to stand his last post without a full-dress biography or autobiography. Drawing mainly on their subject's personal papers (including an unpublished memoir), Booth and Spencer offer a tough-minded, appraisal of a complex career officer whose combat record remains a legend in the American military. Gavin was raised by foster parents in western Pennsylvania's coal country. Leaving his home as a teenager, he enlisted and soon earned an appointment to West Point. Graduating in 1929, Gavin was well prepared for senior command when the US entered WW II. A protà gà of Matthew Ridgway, Gavin made an enduring name for himself as the 82nd Airborne Division's up-front leader in its nonstop campaigns on Europe's bloodiest killing grounds. The unhappily married paratrooper made love as well as war; his conquests included the high-profile likes of Marlene Dietrich and journalist Martha Gellhorn. When the guns fell silent, America's youngest general since Custer never quite regained his stride. With little prospect of earning a fourth star, let alone becoming Chief of Staff, Gavin resigned from the Army in 1957 at the age of 50. Contentedly ensconced in a successful second marriage, the former soldier went on to head Arthur D. Little, a world-class consultancy whose revenues increased almost tenfold during his 20-year stewardship. Gavin (who gave JFK the idea for what became the Peace Corps) took time out to serve as US ambassador to France and otherwise kept active in public affairs. A balanced account of a storied fighting man's achievements on and off the battlefield.
